About This Listing

1953 Epiphone Century thick body Jazz guitar. Guitar is used and in good condition with normal use. Has it share of scratches, dings and scuffs etc. as you might expect from some thing 70 years old. Neck is straight and frets are low but in good condition. There is a slight bit of fret buzz acoustically but I don't hear it coming through the amp. All parts appear to be original. The guitar plays well and sounds good. Please see photos for condition. Comes with Levy's gig bag.
Please see photos for condition. Guitar ships UPS ground, fully insured with signature confirmation only.
